I love this. Steve Jobs has been a hero of mine since my first job out of college in 1983 when I worked on the advertising launch of the Macintosh at agency Chiat/Day. I briefly met him at an agency party in 1984 in San Francisco. He was 28 years old and already a billionaire. Wow.
Let me say up front I consider him a productive narcissist who can be brutal on people for sure. I don’t admire that. (See the HBO video from years ago, Pirates of the Silicon Valley. Superb biographical treatment of Jobs and Bill Gates.)
Jobs is in my mind a marketing genius and one of the gifts to the world of technology, communications and media.
His speech to Stanford graduates is one of the best of its type, and I am always inspired reading or seeing it. I believe 100% in all the principles he talks about. We have one life (that we for sure know of) and one opportunity to give everything we have.

Steve Jobs is fully alive.
